I think this might actually be my main pain point with LLMs. Personally, I don’t want this.
I understand it might be helpful for other people. But, I prefer highly specific, advanced search functionality, such as site: or filetype: in google/ddg searches.
scryfall.com for magic the gathering cards is a great example. I’d much prefer typing a few brief flags such as “id=r” instead of “Get me all red identity cards.” And I know I’m getting all red identity cards with scryfall’s current search functionality.
They are also composable, so I can add/drop ones easily instead of perfectly rephrasing a whole sentence because I wanted to change one clause.
I’d need the same level of trust in the LLM’s filtering capabilities as I do in those boolean or regex matching field filters. An escape hatch to hard filters probably would be best for my experience searching things.
